60 mL of a mixture of nitrous oxide and nitric oxide was exploded with excess of hydrogen. If 38 mL of N2 was formed, then the volume (in mL) of nitric oxide in the mixture is (all measurements are made at constant P and T) :

Solution

Let the volume of NO and N2O be a and b mL respectively.
Then, a+b=60...(i)
NO+H212N2+H2O
a mL 0
0 a2
N2O+H2N2+H2O
b mL 0
0 b
Total N2 formed=(a2)+b=38 ...(ii)
By equations (i) and (ii), a=44 mL, b=16 mL.
So, volume of nitric oxide NO=44 mL.
